This way.
Well, Mr. Holmes...
The case is not clear to me yet, Lestrade.
What about you, Watson?
Well, looks pretty clear-cut to me, I'm afraid.
Exactly, Dr. Watson.
My good Lestrade, you don't add imagination to your other great qualities.
But if you could for one moment put yourself in this young man's place, would you choose the very night the will had been signed to commit your crime?
Wouldn't it seem dangerous to you to make so very close a relation between the two incidents?
Well... Would you choose a location where you're known to be in the house by the servant who'd let you in?
And would you really take the greatest pains to conceal the body and yet leave your own stick lying about as a sign that you were the criminal?
Confess, Lestrade, it's all very unlikely.
Yes, but you know as well as I do that a criminal is often flooded and does things a cool man would avoid.
Suppose some tramp lurking in the garden had seen the documents there in the room with the safe wide open and papers all over the table.
Exit the solicitor, enter the tramp.
He seizes the stick which he finds there, kills old Acre, burns his body, and departs.
But why should a tramp burn the body?
Why should not Farland get rid of some evidence?
Possibly the tramp wanted to conceal the fact that any murder at all had been committed.
Why did the tramp take nothing?
